Vegan Sin-cinnati Chili for Your Halloween Dinner

Since I taunted you with Halloween yesterday I thought I’d give you something to make for your Halloween dinner party.

Cincinnati chili is similar to a regular meaty chili except it has unusual spices that you see more in pumpkin pie than an all-American stew. Traditionally it’s a meat chili that has kidney beans as an optional topping as well as shredded cheese and onions. Then oddly enough it’s served over pasta.

This one uses vegan ground and the lentils for the meaty texture. The unusual spices blend in more than you expect, but there are Cincinnati chili lovers and haters. Because of the extra spices the ingredient list may look intimidating, but most things on the list are a quick measure and you’re done!

This looks especially spooky over spinach pasta, but it would work well over black forbidden rice too. You can cut out ghost shapes out a slice of vegan cheese. Black sesame seeds or nigella seeds make great eyes!

Atmosphere is important in a Halloween gathering, but it doesn’t matter if you cut bats out of paper or buy the coolest decorations ever. No matter how much you do, you’ll be glad you put in the time!
